1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a serious and fatal pulmonary inflammatory disease with an increasing incidence worldwide. The drugs nintedanib and pirfenidone, are listed as conditionally recommended drugs in the "Evidence-Based Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis". However, these two drugs have many adverse reactions in clinical application. Salvianolic acid B (Sal B), a water-soluble component of Salvia miltiorrhiza, could alleviate bleomycin-induced peroxidative stress damage, and prevent or delay the onset of IPF by regulating inflammatory factors and fibrotic cytokines during the disease's progression. However, Sal B is poorly absorbed orally, and patient compliance is poor when administered intravenously. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find a new non-injection route of drug delivery. In this study, Sal B was used as model drug and l-leucine (LL) as excipient to prepare Sal B dry powder inhaler (Sal B-DPI) by spray drying method. Modern preparation evaluation methods were used to assess the quality of Sal B-DPI. Sal B-DPI is promising for the treatment of IPF, according to studies on pulmonary irritation evaluation,
